Notes

CO 165 sts using stash linen fiber purchased eons ago.
This would probably work better on slightly larger needles. Using the Twisted German CO was a mistake - it created a rippled edge. My gauge is uneven so the width varies. And it’s smaller than my other towels - apparently my initial design measurements were off.

  • CO 165 sts w/ecru (e)
  • work 2”
